KAWASAKI   14 May 2026
 
GOING:

Race 10 900m

Track:      

Hot tempo expected from Satono Lilium and Grand Freude. SATONO LILIUM (9) showed good speed over 1200m at Ohi and led throughout to score. Positive ride expected again and expected to feature. GRAND FREUDE (4) found plenty to get the prize by 2.5 lengths three runs back at this track before filling a minor placing at his last two starts. Should be prominent from the outset. Among the leading chances. PINK TOWEL CHAN (2) is fitter for two runs back from a spell and has been in the placings at both appearances, the latest when second over 1400m at Urawa. Right in the mix. SUN DUBUQUE (11) didn't do a bad job when fourth last start over 800m at Urawa. That followed a win at this track the start prior. Well placed and can make amends.
